The Cultured Lens is a glimpse of the world through my eyes. As a photographer, foodie, art lover and culture connoisseur, for me, travel is less about sightseeing and more about wandering off the beaten path in search of off-the-radar local gems. I love boutique hotels, delicious food and quirky places, and I share my finds here.

My travel motto is "Never do something in a new city that you can do at home."

My posts are a marriage of practical information, insightful articles about culture, and vivid photography that I hope, will assist and inspire you to curate your own adventures.
